Did a 30 mile mountain bike ride round York today watching the flood barriers and Water Authority keeping the flood waters at bay.

Some heavy duty pumps in operation and I was able to access along the barrier tops..although I was told off by one official for putting myself in danger ( he was correct of course)..but I do that everytime I drive my Morgan !!!!!

High water tomorrow and very many worried people..I feel for them !!!

They use drones a lot now to check the defences and where they are being breached..much safer way of doing it.

Even though storm Denis has gone there is still a lot of water to come down from the Dales.

Keep Dry if you can....
